    Win 6.8

    A lot of that would benefit the hand loader but in factory rounds you will never find that 174 grain bullet in a WSM or a standard 270. But time will tell if this round stays or goes the way of the dodo bird. It appears that Browning and Winchester are putting their money on it. Even if...

    CA Introduction of Bill SB 252 Prohibit Bear Hunting

    As I have mentioned before I believe that I have seen some of the best hunting out here in the west that there ever will be. And as I get older I am starting to see some of the worst policies for hunting out here in the west. In one case I am glad that I am on the downhill side of my...

    Win 6.8

    The idea of the 6.8 was a longer and heaver bullet that a normal WSM or just a plain old 270 Win could not stabilize with it's rate of twist in the barrel. Yes you could change out the barrel in either one and shoot longer and heaver bullets but then that would cut down the weight of bullet...

    Sources of Revenue for Wyoming Game and Fish

    A nice thing about Arizona is that if you archery hunt you can draw a javelina tag and hunt quail at the same time in January, you then have the hunting license to put in for the draws. I've been doing that for 27 years now but instead of archery hunting javelina I will do the HAM's hunt...

    Sources of Revenue for Wyoming Game and Fish

    Wyoming is no different than any other state out there where there are hunters who what to hunt what Wyoming offers. At least now for the time being they don't require you to purchase a hunting license to put in for the draw. The bigger problem is that when you only have so many tags that...

    Antler drop

    While it isn't New Mexico here in Colorado mule deer are mostly bald headed in March. Elk on the other hand wait a while. I have seen bulls still packing the last years headgear in May and I have also seen bulls with a lot of new growth in May so it is a toss up. I'm not sure about New...

    An Ole Timer

    A single blow from a grizzly can break a calf's neck. Then after that is when he would "gum" them to break open the hide and get to the meat.

    Applying in AZ Drawing Deadline 2/9/2021

    I don't think that it really matters on the license since you need one that is valid on the day of the drawing and a valid one for the hunt itself. Now if it was like Utah where you could get by with a single license every two years it would be different. I don't worry about it since I put...

    Applying in AZ Drawing Deadline 2/9/2021

    Perhaps I was a lucky one. I went straight in did the applications and got out with no problems.

    Colorado National Parks - family vacation

    What time of year? If this covid thing gets handled the rafting companies will open back up but until then it is a day to day type of thing. There are rafting companies that work out of a number of towns. Glenwood Springs has a number of them that have half day trips on the Colorado, then...
